From Entry Level to Level 7 and including everything from ‘skills for life topics’, apprenticeships, management and Functional Skills English and maths, we advance careers and open doors to new opportunities.

NOCN qualifications are flexible and responsive to learner needs and credit based, consisting of individual units of assessment, each with an assigned level and credit value attached. Learners who demonstrate that they have achieved the learning outcomes of a specified unit are awarded credits and can collect/accumulate these over time towards the achievement of a full qualification.
